Professional Practices for Artists: Submissions That Get Noticed

Establishing a professional art career can involve many daunting tasks, such as applying to commercial galleries and art fairs. In this free workshop, artists will work with art consultants from the AGH Art Sales + Services program to assemble a complete artist package applicable for 2026 AGH Art Sale and other commercial venues.

We will share skills and tips that can turn compelling submission packages into tangible commercial gallery opportunities. You will learn: best practices to document and edit images of your artwork, how to write an artist statement and create a CV/resume, how to establish artwork prices, best presentation practices such as editioning and framing.
